Unlock your body’s potential with Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM) 💪✨

By breaking down scar tissue and fascial adhesions, IASTM helps restore smooth, pain-free movement. This technique boosts blood flow and stimulates the healing process, delivering vital nutrients to injured tissues. As mobility improves and stiffness decreases, your range of motion expands — helping you move better, recover faster, and perform at your best 🔥🙌

Low back pain? 😣 The problem might not be your back at all — it could be your hip. 💥

When the psoas muscle, which connects your spine to your legs, becomes tight, it can pull on your lower back and cause pain. This is often seen with prolonged sitting. 🪑📉

And don’t forget about the sacroiliac (SI) joint — when this joint between your spine and pelvis becomes irritated, it can send pain signals straight to your lower back. 🔥

Your hip and back are on the same team — if one’s off, the other might feel it. 💡

What are “knots”🪢💪

Trigger points are hyperirritable spots within a muscle that are tender to the touch and can cause discomfort or dysfunction. There are two main types:
 🔴 Active trigger points cause pain even when you’re at rest. They might refer pain to another part of your body and often mimic other conditions (like tension headaches or sciatica).
 ⚪ Latent trigger points don’t cause pain unless you press on them — but they can still restrict movement and weaken the muscle over time.

Whether active or latent, these points can seriously affect performance, posture, and daily comfort. Releasing them through massage, dry needling, stretching, or movement can bring major relief.

💪 Take care of the muscles that carry you everyday!

Don’t freeze your healing🧊

While ice has its place in injury management, it’s not always the best choice—especially after conservative therapies like physical therapy, chiropractic care, or deep tissue massage.

🔍 Here’s why: Ice works by constricting blood vessels and reducing inflammation. However, after conservative treatments, your body is actually trying to increase circulation to heal the area.

❗Applying ice right after can slow down that healing process, limit lymphatic drainage, and delay recovery.

✨ What your body really needs post-treatment is movement, hydration, and blood flow—not cold that shuts it all down.

✅ So when should you use ice?
* Immediately after an acute injury (think sprains, strains, or bruises within the first 24-48 hours)
* To manage severe swelling or pain in the very early stages
* For short-term numbing if needed—just don’t overdo it!

Is it okay to turn your feet out during a squat🏋️‍♀️
Short answer: Yes — but it depends.

A slight external rotation of the feet (about 5–15°) is acceptable and often beneficial as it can:
- Help you squat deeper
- Improve hip mobility
- Allow your knees to track properly
- Give you a more stable base

However, too much turnout (30°+) can signal:
- Limited ankle or hip mobility
- Weak glutes or core
- Compensations from old injuries
- Increased stress on knees and feet

There is some variability in where your feet can be during a squat, but the most important aspect is that the knees should always be in line with the toes. This provides:
1. Joint safety: distributes force evenly, preventing excessive strain on knee ligaments
2. Improved balance/control
3. Proper muscle engagement: allows the muscles of the legs to work together efficiently.
